📣 And finally, I’d like to share wise words from Frederick Douglass (1818–1895), African-American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman:

🗣️ “I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.”

📣Courage is contagious.

➡️ María Corina Machado was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her tireless fight to restore #democracy in Venezuela 🇻🇪—despite being barred from running for president, facing threats, and living under authoritarian rule.

She’s an inspiration to me—especially as a 🇺🇸🇩🇴 Latino witnessing the rise of #authoritarianism in the U.S.

Her #courage and commitment to peaceful resistance remind me of Maya Angelou’s timeless word👇🏾

It said: "The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why and Where phases.
"For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question How can we eat? the second by the question Why do we eat? and the third by the question Where shall we have lunch?"

The art we look at is made by only a select few. A small group create, promote, purchase, exhibit and decide the success of art. Only a few hundred people in the world have any real say. When you go to an art gallery you are simply a tourist looking at the trophy cabinet of a few millionaires.
